Ini (Georgian letter)

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

For letter from Armenian script, see Ini (Armenian letter).

Ini (asomtavruli Ⴈ, nuskhuri ⴈ, mkhedruli ი, mtavruli Ი) is the 10th letter of the three Georgian scripts.[1]

In the system of Georgian numerals it has a value of 10.[2]

Ini commonly represents the close front unrounded vowel /i/, like the pronunciation of ⟨i⟩ in "machine", or the near-close near-front unrounded vowel /ɪ/, like the pronunciation of ⟨i⟩ in "sin".
